Abstract
This book is comprised of a collection of papers from two international symposiums on Haruki Murakami. The papers were written by 22 scholars from Japan, France, England, Italy, the United States, and Taiwan. They adopt a variety of approaches to Murakami’s work, and what emerges is a phenomenon that changes in the context of different cultures. One of the features of the book is that many of its authors offer unexpected ways to link Haruki Murakami’s work with that of other Japanese writers. This feature encourages readers to revisit Murakami’s oeuvre and to discover new dimensions in it.
